Overview: Oracle Cloud Infrastructure is building Oracle Video @ Edge, a next-generation streaming platform for live and linear video delivery. We are seeking a Senior Principal Video Player and Video Encoding Engineer to define how encoded media is prepared, delivered, and played back across OVE-supported environments.

This role will connect player behavior, encoding and packaging decisions, low-latency streaming, hybrid delivery paths, and QoE outcomes into a coherent engineering strategy for OVE.

Why OCI: Build next-generation live streaming infrastructure with direct viewer impact. Work across media, networking, edge delivery, playback, and encoding systems. Shape a greenfield platform with strong strategic priority. Solve practical problems that determine customer adoption and live-event readiness.

Responsibilities: Define OVE playback and encoding architecture for live and linear streaming. Design encoding ladders, GOP structures, CMAF packaging profiles, and low-latency media preparation strategies. Develop or guide player integrations across web, mobile, and CTV environments. Tune ABR, buffering, startup, failover, and latency behavior for hybrid UDP and delivery. Partner with relay, control plane, observability, and customer teams to debug end-to-end playback issues. Define quality metrics and validation workflows for encoding and playback performance. Support customer pilots, live-event readiness, and post-event analysis.

Qualifications: 10+ years of experience in video player development, media streaming systems, encoding systems, or related infrastructure. Deep expertise in HLS, DASH, CMAF, low-latency streaming, ABR, buffering, and playback QoE. Strong understanding of video encoding, codecs, bitrate ladders, GOP design, packaging, and device decode constraints. Experience with DRM, ad break transitions, timed metadata, and live-event playback behavior is preferred. Strong debugging skills across client, edge, origin, CDN, encoded media, and backend systems. Programming experience in JavaScript, TypeScript, C++, Java, Go, Python, or similar production languages.
